Tools

Uses hooks to enforce test-driven development in Claude Code: blocks implementation without a failing test, prevents code beyond what tests require, and can use lint results to push refactoring. Needs Node.js 22+. Still maintained, but the author suggests its successor Probity for new projects.

MiniMax's official CLI, built for agents: chat with MiniMax models from the terminal and generate images, video and speech, plus speech transcription, image understanding and web search. Works with the international platform. Requires a MiniMax Token Plan subscription.

A native Go MCP server for Kubernetes and OpenShift: talks to the API server directly to create, read, update and delete any resource, view pod logs, exec commands and install Helm charts, without needing kubectl. Supports multiple clusters.

The Linux Foundation's open-source compliance toolchain: analyzes project dependencies, scans licenses and copyrights, checks known vulnerabilities, flags policy violations and generates SBOMs and notice files. Needs Java 25 or Docker and ideally 8 GB RAM; have legal review license findings.

Unofficial Freshservice CLI built with Printing Press: lets AI check an IT agent's queue, flag tickets near SLA breach, search tickets and the knowledge base, gauge team workload, spot recurring issues and KB gaps, and manage changes and assets. Needs a Freshservice account and API key.

Microsoft's official Azure DevOps MCP server: query and act on work items, repos, pull requests, build pipelines, test plans and wikis. Sign in with a Microsoft account that has access on first use; Microsoft recommends the no-install remote version instead.

Community-maintained GitLab MCP server: manage projects, merge requests, issues, pipelines, wikis and releases, with support for self-hosted instances and a read-only mode. Needs a GitLab personal access token or OAuth.

Self-hostable long-term memory for agents, offering MCP, a REST API and a web dashboard: semantic search, knowledge graph and automatic memory consolidation. Embeddings are computed locally; choose SQLite, Cloudflare or Milvus as the backend.

Searches and reads official Microsoft Learn documentation and code samples for Azure, .NET and more, so agents give fewer outdated answers about Microsoft tech. Maintained by Microsoft; the remote server is free and needs no key.

Netlify's official CLI: deploy sites, run projects locally with Netlify Dev, manage environment variables, Functions and Blobs, and call the Netlify API directly. Needs Node.js 22.13+ and a Netlify account.

Full-lifecycle tool for serverless apps (the s command): describe an app in YAML and deploy it to FaaS platforms such as Alibaba Cloud Function Compute, AWS Lambda and Tencent Cloud SCF, with CI/CD integration. A CNCF Sandbox project; needs cloud provider credentials.

Before tool calls run, blocks destructive Git and file commands (git reset --hard, rm -rf) and access to sensitive files like SSH keys and .env. Parses command semantics, so bash -c wrappers are caught too. Works with Claude Code, Codex and other coding CLIs; needs Node.js 18+.

Recommends daily papers from arXiv and Semantic Scholar by research interest, reads them and writes illustrated Obsidian notes and a paper graph; can also search venues like CVPR and NeurIPS. Needs Python 3, Obsidian, a vault path and an interests config; the web app needs an Anthropic API key.

Manages stacked branches and dependent pull requests with the gh stack GitHub CLI extension: splits work into layered branches with one PR each, then handles push, submit, sync, rebase and merge, using flags that keep commands non-interactive for agents. Official GitHub skill.

Fly.io's official CLI (fly): sign in, create and deploy apps, and list apps and check their status, reading fly.toml in the current directory to identify the app. Needs a Fly.io account.

MathWorks' official server that lets agents start your local MATLAB, write and run scripts and unit tests, and check code style and potential errors, for computing, simulation and data analysis. Needs a licensed MATLAB R2021a+ and the downloaded server binary.

Docker's official MCP gateway (the docker mcp CLI plugin): runs servers from the Docker MCP Catalog in isolated containers, manages secrets, OAuth and tool toggles centrally, and gives multiple clients one endpoint. Built into Docker Desktop 4.59+; Docker CE and other setups must build the plugin.

Microsoft's official Azure plugin: bundles 20+ skills such as azure-prepare, azure-deploy, azure-diagnostics and azure-cost, and connects the Azure MCP and Foundry MCP to query resources, estimate costs, deploy and troubleshoot. Needs an Azure subscription and az login.

Microsoft's official Azure skill set: deployment prep and validation, deployment, production diagnostics, AKS, quota lookup, compliance audits, cloud migration and Foundry; the plugin version also connects the Azure MCP Server. Needs an Azure account and az login.

Uses the Qdrant vector database as a semantic memory layer for agents: store information and retrieve it by meaning, connecting to a remote instance or a local path, with FastEmbed generating embeddings by default. Maintained by Qdrant.

HashiCorp's official server: looks up provider, module and policy docs in the Terraform Registry to help write IaC; with an HCP Terraform token it can also manage workspaces, variables and runs. Runs in Docker by default.

Connects LLMs to ROS and ROS 2 robots: publish and subscribe to topics, call services and actions, set parameters, and read sensor and robot state, without changing robot code. The robot side needs rosbridge running.

A plugin marketplace with dozens of plugins: an enhanced skill-creator, scrapers for Bilibili, Douban and Feishu docs, China A-share news and US stock fundamentals, WeCom notifications, deep research and fact-checking, with docs in English and Chinese.

Manages a Microsoft 365 tenant with one m365 command: SharePoint, Teams, OneDrive, Outlook, Planner, Power Platform and more, with JSON output and JMESPath filtering. An open-source PnP community project, not officially supported by Microsoft; register an Entra app before signing in.
